The holidays are upon us! If you’re looking to restore a sense of normalcy to the office, hosting an office party potluck is a great place to start. A potluck is a classic way to celebrate the season and encourage team-building (but consider stocking up on personal protective equipment to ensure that everyone feels safe). Need inspiration on what to bring? Here, we share a few of our favorite recipes that are perfect for potlucks:
Cranberry Brie Bites
These cranberry Brie bites elevate the simplicity of crescent rolls and are bursting with flavor. This appetizer is the ideal combination of savory and sweet, and Brie adds a little something extra that feels festive. This recipe requires just a few ingredients, meaning minimal mess (and stress).
Green Bean Casserole
When in doubt, you can’t go wrong with the classics. This green bean casserole is creamy and comforting, and is great for appealing to a diverse crowd. It’s vegetarian-friendly, but you can bring a side of bacon bits to sprinkle on top for those who prefer some added flavor.
Potluck Meatballs
Short on time? Potluck meatballs are a breeze to whip up and are almost guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser. This version features red pepper flakes for a subtle kick of heat that’s perfect for helping office mates warm up on chilly days.
Oreo Cookie Balls
The cake ball craze is here to stay, and Oreo cookie balls are a fun twist on this delicious dessert. These bite-sized sweets require just three ingredients and don’t need any bake time. Simply crush one pound of Oreo cookies and combine them with cream cheese to create the filling, then freeze and dip in a candy coating once cooled. To add some extra holiday flair, you can combine crushed peppermints into the Oreo mixture.
Buttery Shortbread Cookies
During the holiday season, everyone is happy to stop by the dessert table. These buttery three-ingredient shortbread cookies are simple and sweet, and can be prepped in just 10 minutes. To prevent the shortbread cookies from crumbling on their journey to the potluck, be sure to separate each layer with parchment paper.
